Re: Kawa compiled using Gcj

Yes. It results in run-time compilation to Java bytecodes, but those
bytecodes are interpreted by the Java interpreter.  Of course if we
plug a JIT into Gcj then we would get run-time compilation from Scheme
into Java bytecodes followed by run-time compilation of bytecodes into
native code.
